Yum! Great happy hour. We stopped in for appetizers and drinks before going to a comedy show at the Helium Club. The food was delicious. Wings, queso, plantains (outstanding!). Service was great. The staff is welcoming and attentive.

We had been years ago, but decided to give it another shot. We tried the chorizo fundido, chicken burrito, plantains and brisket enchiladas. All the food was tasty. Our waiter was awesome and very friendly; he gave us lots of recommendations. The margs were delicious and fresh, but could have used a little more tequila. All in all, it was a good meal, good service. Would definitely return!
